1. What qualities separate the photographer from the photojournalist?
According to Larry Hattenberg, a KAKE-TV video journalist, anyone with a camera can be a photographer. No one is a photojournalist until they learn how to tell the visual story. Whether you work alone, in a crew, or even with just one other person, Hattenberg's definition of the photojournalist extends to everyone involved.
2. In what sense are the camera and microphone "writing and reporting instruments"?
The camera and microphone are considered "writing and reporting instruments" in the sense that in media that contains moving images and sound, we are always writing with one instrument or another. Camera, microphone, sound, silence, actions, behaviors, video editing, and the spoken word. In the end, all those instruments come down to this: In video media you can only communicate in two ways; one is with images, the other is with sound. So the camera and microphone are instruments because the camera captures the pictures and the microphone captures the sound.
3. Why can the edit console fairly be called a "rewrite" machine?
Editing is the field search for building blocks of visual communication, the equivalent of a mind's eye storyboard that begins to take shape even before you arrive on location. When you edit, you are beginning the deliberate process to your visual and also changing things and making it better.
4. How does the nature of a television news report differ from a newspaper story?
News reports commonly emphasize just the facts. They may show people in interviews, walking here and there, and sometimes doing interesting things. In the end and with exceptions, however, they highlight facts and information more than they use video and field audio to help communicate a sense of experience or to introduce interesting people to viewers. Newspaper stories reveal someone's goals and actions as they unfold sequentially, along a timeline. They use moving images an sound to mimic how viewers experience the world in their personal lives. Images and sounds are different tools than words on paper or even words spoken aloud. Typically, print informs or reports first to the intellect. Visual stories commonly report first to the heart.
5. What is the role of the written word in television news?
The role of written words in television news is to connect the pictures and sounds just in case you are unable to understand. The words are like a guide so you can read along, because when the anchor is reporting the story, they often read faster.
